Hi folks Can anyone please tell me if there was a change of headers when the 2014 came out? Looking to sell my Arrow system and do not wish to deceive anybody Many thanks Rob

Bought myself a set of long Allen head sockets and armed with my trusty torque wrench and no real research, torqued every spoke on the rear wheel. Each spoke moved probably 2 complete turns before torque was reached. Have I messed up big time? Is the wheel now likely out of true and if so how...

How many Rukka owners have the annoying occurrence of the rukka knee and shin armour catching on top of your boots and pushing the leg trousers up your leg in a very odd way. Not really a problem and something I can live with, but a little annoying. Any solutions? I have thought of trimming...

Hi Folks, Picked up one of these second hand without any fittings. Can any one tell me what type of fitting is required under the rear spindle/axle please? The other 2 fixing points are obvious. Many thanks in advance Rob

Hi Folks, I am hoping to install my second hand Arrow Headers this week and was hoping people could help with some advice as although it looks fairly obvious I have no instructions. 1)Do I need any exhaust paste from end can to link pipe (or anywhere else)? 2) There are 2 bushes that mate up...

Hi Folks. I know this is a well discussed subject, however I am still not fully clear on some things. Ok, I have a 2012/13 and carried out an ECU reflash with great results. Since then I purchased a full Arrow system from a good guy on this site. I have fitted the Slip-on and love the noise...

Hi folks, I have been using a black sheepskin on my saddle for comfort purposes. I left the bike out in the heavy rain for a couple of days, and when removing the sheepskin to dry it out, saw that some of the black dye had leached out into the white paintwork on my tank where it touched it. I...

Just Purchased a second hand Arrow system and fitted the Slip on only at this point. Love the noise, however the bike now pops on deceleration and, it could be my imagination, but I feel the bike is now snatchy at low speeds (I do spend 99% of the time in sport mode). I was waiting for a...

Hi Folks, My ECU is on it's way back to me after a reflash. The engineer emailed me saying to disconnect the O2 sensors after reassembly. Can any one tell me what they look like and where they are located.... and are they simple to disconnect. many thanks in advance. Rob

I have adjusted my shift by using the vertical rod and locking nuts, however would I have been better to simply have adjusted it by moving the upper part on the spindle? (if you know what I mean!) Thanks Rob

Hi Folks I have just purchased the above and was wondering if i can simply run the two wires into the OE Aux Light socket which is already switched and fused? I know I am sacrificing a power source but would still be gaining a further 4. I just thought that it would be a tidy fitment and all in...

Have been looking at this jacket and was wondering if you guys would have an answer to the following question (I know I could contact Held) The pockets and also the zipflap are held open with magnets. All very well, but could they affect my credit cards etc which I tend to keep in my wallet in a...

Hi there Want to change the levers on my Super Tenere. Looking at what is available has left me a little perturbed! Are european levers at £80 - £150 that much better than a set from China off ebay for £20 - £40. (interesting to know where the "european levers are actually made) In the...

As per title. Can any one please let me have the Torque setting for the Gear shift bolt and do you recommend loctite on it as well? many thanks Rob (P.S. is there a thread/forum here where common Torque settings are posted up?)

Just about to do this and wondered if disconnecting the terminals for the few moments it takes to install the Optimate lead will re-set clocks etc etc? If so, is that a problem easily rectified? happy new year Rob

Are there any available ? have I missed a post/thread somewhere? Got me some "naked" Bumots!!! Cheers Rob

I recently installed some oxford heated grips and when deciding which side to mount the controller, I took off both L & R mirrors, On returning the mirrors, I did not remember that the Right side mirror had a reverse thread and proceeded to try to force the mirror home damaging the top two...

I love the bike and I took a gamble on the Bumot luggage as it is little known in the UK. The quality of the luggage is excelent and i love the lockable tool box that fits on the right side pannier frame. For those interested, the total width of the panniers is 38". Handlebars are 36" wide...

I am sorry to ask again as I am certain I read about this somewhere but can not find it. I "think" I read that they are imcompatible, as the Winglets share a common mounting point on the bracket, can anyone confirm or otherwise? Thanks is advance Rob

As per post title, My name is Rob and I collect my bike on Saturday. First Yamaha I have owned, have ridden a 700 Transalp for the last 5 years. Be prepared for daft questions... and thanks in advance. :)
